If you're going to vote against this, it's IMO your responsibility to make sure this gets cleaned up reasonably soon. Dictatorships are, by tradition, temporary, and this one has been in effect for more than a quarter now. Also, I vote FOR 8529. -Aris

Please be reminded that the Holiday ends at midnight UTC on 4th Jan 2021. I have deferred use of summary judgements for tardiness despite their frequency during the Holiday due to respect for the implicit customs of my predecessor and the recommendations in rule 1769. However, I will not feel compelled to withhold use of such powers if reports for next week turn out to also be late.

BUS: CFJ annotations for Jason
I submit a proposed annotation for rule 2350 to Jason, the rulekeepor: CFJ 3868 (called 12 Jul 2020): Referring to undefined entities in conjunction with the term "proposal" in a proposal-like text can render the text insufficiently unambiguous, such that a public message containing it fails to create a proposal by announcement. Additionally, if a CFJ is called to resolve whether a proposal was created by announcement, this occurrence can be an indicator of ambiguity in the action's specification.
